The Yue Kiln Lotus Gaiwan combines the gentle character of Yue celadon with a raised scrolling lotus motif.
Measuring approximately 9.6 cm in diameter and 8.5 cm in height, with a capacity of around 130 ml, the gaiwan has a compact and balanced form suitable for personal tea drinking.
The lotus and scrolling vines are rendered in relief, creating a continuous decorative rhythm across the vessel. The soft celadon glaze enhances the raised decoration, allowing light and shadow to reveal subtle variations across the surface.
The result is a tea vessel that combines practical use with the quiet beauty of traditional Chinese decorative arts.

Yue Celadon × Raised Lotus Relief × Three-Part Structure
The gaiwan follows the traditional three-part structure of lid, bowl, and saucer.
With a diameter of approximately 9.6 cm and a height of 8.5 cm, its compact proportions and 130 ml capacity make it suitable for individual tea drinking.
The scrolling lotus pattern is rendered in raised relief, with blossoms and vines forming a continuous composition. The three-dimensional decoration interacts naturally with the celadon glaze, creating subtle highlights and shadows.
The design focuses on the relationship between glaze, relief decoration, and form, expressing the restrained elegance and order characteristic of traditional Chinese ceramics.

The lotus is traditionally associated with purity, elegance, and refined character in Chinese culture.
The continuously flowing vines of the scrolling pattern also suggest continuity, growth, and enduring good wishes. The scrolling lotus therefore functions as both a decorative motif and a cultural expression of beauty and flourishing life.
The gentle tone of Yue celadon adds a sense of calm and natural refinement.
Together, the lotus motif and celadon glaze create a quiet cultural atmosphere, bringing traditional symbolism naturally into the everyday ritual of tea.
